00:03Dijana into the quarterfinals here at Roland Garros
00:05Just talk us through the match
00:07And tell us how you feel
00:08Achieving this result
00:09Yeah, definitely super happy and proud of myself
00:13Again, lost three times
00:15Before to Maddy
00:17But again, you know
00:19Went on court today
00:20Thinking about like
00:21Just I need to grind today
00:23You know, definitely clay
00:24A little different conditions than hard courts
00:28So yeah, just try to be
00:29More consistent today
00:31Was trying to use more spin
00:33More high balls
00:34And then just putting more balls
00:37And trying to
00:40Decourage my enforced errors
00:41But then at the same time
00:42Have an opportunity to be more aggressive
00:45I mean, Maddy played
00:47Definitely better in the second set than in the third
00:51Was a huge hold in the first game
00:54In the third set
00:55So I feel like after that
00:57It was just like kind of a relief
00:59That I could hold my serve
01:01In the first game
01:02And then just
01:03Kind of
01:04Was playing in the flow
01:06A little bit in the third set
01:13Well done, congrats
01:14So first Grand Slam quarterfinal
01:16On deck for you
01:17I'm curious just now
01:18You've been in other quarterfinals
01:19To other tournaments before
01:20But how does
01:21I guess the feeling of this one compare
01:23And are you kind of just
01:24Starting to realize
01:25Okay, there's only
01:26Potentially three more matches
01:27You know, left
01:28I mean
01:29I'm definitely not thinking about
01:31Like how much is left
01:33You know, just super happy
01:35With my performance today
01:37Overall
01:37Just how I played
01:38And how I stay composed
01:41Through the whole match
01:43Just, you know
01:44Holding my emotions
01:45In
01:47I feel like it was huge today
01:50And
01:50Yeah, looking forward to the next match
01:52You know
01:52It's already
01:53Huge achievement for myself
01:56I feel like
01:57I'm just gonna enjoy it
01:58You know
01:58Playing again
01:59In a great stadium
02:00And then just
02:02We'll try to
02:03Play like today
02:04Or even better
02:05And then just fight
02:06And we'll see how it goes
02:09Congratulations
02:09Just in that third set
02:11I mean, obviously
02:11Madison Keys
02:12Does not lose a lot of sets
02:136-0
02:14So how did you
02:15How were you able to
02:16Maintain that level
02:17And keep her from
02:18From getting any
02:20Traction
02:21In that final set
02:22Yeah, again
02:23I feel like
02:24First game was
02:25Very important
02:26You know
02:26I was down
02:2715-40
02:28On my serve
02:30To come back
02:31From 15-40
02:32And then
02:33Hold the serve
02:34I feel like
02:35That was very important
02:36And especially
02:37In the first game
02:38And then
02:39I feel like
02:40It was a little bit
02:41Of relief
02:41That I
02:42I managed to stay
02:43In that
02:44In that game
02:45And then
02:45To lead kind of
02:46Just one lap
02:47And then
02:49I feel like
02:50I just try
02:50You know
02:51Going for point by point
02:52Not thinking about
02:53I mean
02:54I know that
02:54Maddie is a big server
02:55And then she goes
02:56For the
02:56For those winners
02:58I was just trying
03:01Again
03:01To put as many balls
03:03In the court
03:03As I can
03:04Trying to go for
03:05Deeper
03:05Higher balls
03:06To not let her
03:07To step in
03:07And being more aggressive
03:08And then if I would
03:10See an opportunity
03:12Being more aggressive
03:13Myself
03:14But then not going
03:15For too too much
03:16To not do
03:17Too many unforced mistakes
03:18So I feel like
03:19I just try to play
03:20Simple
03:21And then
03:22Also not letting her
03:23To like
03:24Be too much aggressive
03:27I don't know
03:27Well done
03:28Your previous match
03:29Against Oli Incova
03:29There had obviously
03:30Been a lot of attention
03:31A lot of talk about it
03:32How much of a distraction
03:33Was that
03:34How difficult was that
03:34For you to just
03:35Kind of stay focused
03:36On the job in hand
03:38Not at all
03:38Again
03:40I'm not
03:42Putting too much
03:43Attention
03:44Any
03:45Outside of tennis
03:47So
03:47Yeah
03:48I was just
03:49You know
03:50Getting ready
03:51For the match
03:51By match
03:52And then
03:53Practicing
03:53And then just
03:54Like taking care
03:55Of my body
03:57So I'm
03:58I'm just trying
03:59To stay focused
03:59Only on tennis
04:00And not
04:01Thinking too much
04:02Outside of it
04:03And just a tennis one
04:04Obviously
04:05Because you've been
04:05So consistent
04:06Some people might be
04:07Surprised that this is
04:08A first slam
04:09Quarter final
04:09For you
04:10Has anything made
04:11The difference
04:12Or is it just
04:12A question of
04:13If you keep
04:13Kind of doing
04:14The right things
04:15Eventually
04:15You'll kind of
04:15Get over that line
04:16I feel like
04:18Definitely
04:19Was more about
04:21Like mental state
04:22Here
04:22You know
04:23Just trusting
04:24More of myself
04:25My game
04:26Not being too
04:27Negative
04:28On myself
04:29I feel like
04:30Before
04:30If I would
04:31Lose the second
04:31Side
04:32I would be
04:33Doubting myself
04:34A lot
04:35In the third
04:36So definitely
04:37Thinking like
04:38More staying
04:39In the moment
04:40And thinking
04:41About solution
04:42What I have to do
04:43And not
04:44Going too much
04:46Into like
04:46Thoughts of
04:47Doubting myself
04:48And being too
04:49Negative
04:49Like that
04:50I have done
04:50Something wrong
04:51When my opening
04:52Is playing better
04:53So yeah
04:54Definitely
04:55I feel like
04:55Here
04:56Just being
04:57Focused and
04:57Composed
04:59Through my
05:00Emotions
05:00Helped a lot
05:02Yeah
05:03Congratulations
05:03Got a huge
05:04Match next
05:05Could you
05:05Kind of reflect
05:06Breakdown
05:07Facing Sabalenka
05:08Or Osaka
05:10I mean
05:11Yeah
05:12It's gonna be
05:12A great match
05:14Doesn't matter
05:15Who's gonna win
05:16World number one
05:18Former world
05:19Grand slam
05:20Champions
05:20So definitely
05:22A huge match
05:23Coming up
05:24And I mean
05:24My first
05:25Quarter final
05:26So it
05:27Doesn't matter
05:28Who's gonna win
05:28We will see
05:29Obviously
05:30With a coach
05:31I mean
05:32Kind of
05:33Similar game style
05:35Aggressive game style
05:36Going for the shots
05:40Yeah
05:40We will see
05:41I will just
05:42You know
05:42Try to do my job
05:43Try to play a game
05:44Like same
05:45As I was
05:46Today
05:47Not doing
05:47Too much
05:48Of my own
05:48Mistakes
05:49But at the
05:49Same time
05:50Being aggressive
05:50But not going
05:51For too
05:51Too much
05:53And then
05:54Again
05:54Just
05:55We'll try
05:55To enjoy
05:56And
05:57See it
05:58As an opportunity
05:59To get
05:59That experience
06:00For my future
06:03Two short questions
06:04I talked to you
06:05Last year
06:05I think in Australia
06:06About the woman
06:06Back in Russia
06:07Who used to make
06:07Your bandanas
06:08And now
06:09Yannick's
06:09Makes them for you
06:10Sorry
06:11So how nice
06:11Is that
06:12To have those
06:12Already matching
06:13Your outfit
06:14Or do they
06:14Just add
06:15The logo
06:16To something
06:16You make
06:17No
06:17That's
06:18That's
06:18That's
06:19Their job
06:19That's
06:20Their work
06:23That's
06:24For the first time
06:25And definitely
06:26Something that
06:27We're trying
06:28To figure out
06:30Like
06:30If I'm comfortable
06:31Or not
06:32But I feel like
06:33It's great
06:35I feel like
06:36It's a very cute outfit
06:37And I'm definitely
06:38Enjoying
06:38Seeing this
06:39In the picture
06:40And secondly
06:41Your coach
06:42Is very familiar
06:43With a player
06:44Who just announced
06:45She's coming back
06:46Today
06:46Serena Williams
06:47I'm curious
06:48What your thoughts
06:48Are on that
06:49And just Serena
06:50Being back on tour
06:51Yeah
06:52I mean
06:53I haven't really
06:54Heard a lot
06:55About it
06:57I feel like
06:57There's definitely
06:58A lot of attention
07:00About it
07:00I don't know
07:01If she's coming back
07:02Like only for doubles
07:03Or like
07:04If she's coming
07:04For singles too
07:06But again
07:07I'm not paying
07:08Too too much attention
07:09You know
07:09We have Grand Slam here
07:10I'm in quarters
07:11So I'm just
07:12More focused on myself
07:13And a future match
07:15So yeah
07:16I mean
07:16I'm happy for her
07:17If she's ready
07:18To be back
07:19We will see
07:23Just going back
07:24About who you're
07:25Going to be playing
07:25Next
07:25Do you
07:26Since you have a few
07:26Hours now
07:27Before they play
07:27Will you watch
07:29And if so
07:29Do you use that
07:30Opportunity
07:30To kind of
07:31Analyze things
07:31Or are you just
07:32Going to be
07:32Relaxing
07:33I guess
07:34I mean
07:36Sometimes I watch
07:36Sometimes I don't
07:37Because I feel like
07:38On the TV
07:39It's definitely
07:40Different when you
07:41Look at it
07:42In real life
07:42I'm definitely
07:43Not going to be staying
07:44Because it's going
07:44To be too late
07:46But yeah
07:47We'll see
07:48If I'm going to
07:48Watch it on the TV
07:49Or on my phone
07:50Or I'm just going to
07:52Kind of enjoy
07:52And just you know
07:53Call my mom
07:54And just you know
07:55Just go through
07:56The match today
07:57Just yeah
07:59We'll see
07:59But definitely
08:00Maybe watch a little bit
08:02Or we watch it tomorrow
08:03With a coach
08:04To kind of like
08:05To see the most
08:06Important parts of the game
